Arms of the Study
Arm 1
Arm Type
Experimental
Arm Label
Multistage low-energy stimulation
Arm Description
Multistage low-energy electrical pulses as described in Janardhan AH et al. JACC 2014 Jan7-14:63(1):40-8 will be delivered to a patient in atrial fibrillation. The responses to these stimuli will be recorded.
Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
Safety and Efficacy of Multistage low-energy pulses to organize, suppress, or terminate atrial fibrillation as determined by changes in atrial fibrillation cycle length, and atrial electrogram morphology.
Multistage low-energy pulses are delivered to the atria of patients while in atrial fibrillation. The atrial electrograms will be recorded and used to evaluate if there was a change in the atrial fibrillation cycle length, increased organization of the arrhythmia using frequency analysis or if the pulses were able to terminate the atrial fibrillation.
